Tami Brugman is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 24 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate a wide range of mental health and life challenges. Licensed to practice in both Texas and California, she has worked across community mental health settings and private practice, supporting people with issues ranging from everyday life adjustments to more severe mental illnesses.

Tami uses a compassionate, client-centered approach that treats each person and situation as unique. She emphasizes the connection between mind and body, a perspective that informs her ongoing doctoral studies in Applied Psychophysiology at Saybrook University. This training complements her practical experience and expands the tools she brings to therapy.

Her work draws on multiple evidence-informed methods, selected to match each client’s needs and goals. Tami aims to apply the right combination of strategies from her clinical toolbox to help clients manage stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, depression, ADHD, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting and family problems, career transitions, and other life changes.

Recognizing that reaching out for help takes courage, Tami positions herself as a collaborative partner who walks alongside clients as they pursue meaningful, achievable goals in therapy.
